Qorintyim Ri’shon
(1 Corinthians) 13
THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not
love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And though
I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all
knowledge; and though I have all belief, so that I could remove
mountains, and have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all
my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and
have not love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love suffers long, and is kind; love
envies not; love does not vaunt itself, is not puffed up, 5 Does not behave
itself unseemly, ‫ את‬eth seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks
no evil; 6 Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the Truth; 7 Bears all
things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love
never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether
there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall
vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that
which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I
thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I
know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13 And now
abides belief, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
